2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After logging into Pabbly Connect, you need to create a new workflow. Click on the plus sign and select ‘Create Workflow’. Name your workflow something like ‘YouTube to Pinterest’ to keep it organized.

  • Click the plus sign to create a new workflow.
  • Name your workflow (e.g., ‘YouTube to Pinterest’).
  • Select the YouTube app for integration.

Once you name your workflow, you will be prompted to select your YouTube account. Click on ‘Continue’ to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your YouTube data securely.


3. Configuring the YouTube Trigger

Now that your workflow is set up, it’s time to configure the YouTube trigger in Pabbly Connect. Select your YouTube channel ID, which should be automatically captured. Before moving on, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure everything is working correctly.

To do this, make sure a new video is uploaded to your YouTube channel. This allows Pabbly Connect to capture the latest response from YouTube, ensuring that the integration will work effectively.


4. Creating a Pinterest Pin Automatically

After successfully setting up the YouTube trigger, the next step is to create a Pinterest pin using Pabbly Connect. Select the Pinterest app and choose the action event as ‘Create Pin’. This will allow you to automate the pin creation process for each video published.

  • Select Pinterest as the application.
  • Choose the action event ‘Create Pin’.
  • Map the required fields such as image URL, title, and description from YouTube.

Map the image URL from the YouTube video thumbnail, and fill in the title and description with the video details. Once all fields are mapped correctly, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create a test pin.


5. Verifying the Integration

Finally, to verify that your integration is working, check your Pinterest account. Refresh the page to see if the new pin has been created successfully. This confirms that Pabbly Connect is functioning as intended, automating the process of creating pins for every YouTube video published.

Sometimes, it may take a few minutes for the new pin to appear due to the polling nature of the trigger. If you do not see the pin immediately, wait a little longer and refresh your Pinterest account again.
